1 25 th February 4 th March 2017 GOLDFIELDS CAVALCADE 25 th JUBILEE! First building in Omakau With the railway making it one of the country s busiest stock loading stations, the rural town I remember was a thriving settlement.

There was a Bank of New Zealand, stock and station agent, two grocers, two garages - one with smithy attached - a clothing store and boarding house. At the confectionery shop cum lending library we bought threepenny ice-creams on picture nights. At the community hall films were shown once a fortnight, adults charged one and sixpence, children ninepence. (Taken from My Place in the Heart: A Memory of Omakau by Joy Blair.)
